[Bug] The videos stuttering if VP9 codec is enabled

hassan-waris opened this issue 3 years ago · 44 comments

The videos I watch all stutter even on 1080p 60fps, and when I turn vp9 codec off the problems still persists

Answer 1 · 2021-11-14T18:19:32.000Z

Sorry but it sounds like a problem with your network speed.

Answer 2 · 2021-11-14T21:43:47.000Z

Hi, if I watch the video on the original YouTube all its find which happily runs at 1080p 60fps… only this uyou has a problem… my speeds are more than adequate enough for 4k content so 1080 60fps should be fine

Answer 3 · 2021-11-15T02:10:36.000Z

Laggy with YTUHD is a known issue. Now I‘m pretty confused because you said VP9 is disabled 🤷‍♂️, which means the stutter on 1080p/60fps is not relevant to YTUHD

Sorry but I don’t have an answer to your question.

What device are you using?

Answer 5 · 2021-11-17T11:57:20.000Z

iPhone 13 pro max

Answer 6 · 2021-12-07T03:03:06.000Z

@PoomSmart
It seems like many people are facing this issue on the sideloaded version of YTUHD :/

Answer 7 · 2021-12-07T10:04:33.000Z

@qnblackcat Do they all face the problem even with the VP9 option disabled?

Answer 8 · 2021-12-07T13:43:01.000Z

@hassan-waris @SpecialOperations @ErSpieltHD
Do you have the stuttering if you disable YTUHD?

Answer 9 · 2021-12-09T23:45:28.000Z

@qnblackcat Now I need to know on what devices are we talking about. iPhone SE 1st gen for example won't handle 4K well due to hardware speed.

Answer 15 · 2021-12-14T22:55:27.000Z

@PoomSmart I'm seeing the issues with these videos:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=CxwJrzEdw1U @ 2160p
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXb3EKWsInQ @ 2160p HDR

Both work fine when played with the latest YouTube (16.46.5) from the App Store. The HDR one on uYou+ stutters more than the other one, as you might expect.

@qnblackcat I saw that the v16.45.4-2.1 tagged commit is using YTUHD dylibs that were committed 2 months ago but 21 days ago @PoomSmart made a change to Common.x in YTUHD to uncomment the code that enables the entitlement spoofing. Was the YTUHD dylib in here built with it still commented out?

My phone info:

13 Pro Max on iOS 15.1.1
uYouPlus_16.45.4_2.1.ipa
Sideloaded with Sideloadly on a free Developer account

Answer 16 · 2021-12-16T09:37:01.000Z

@mihir-io Can you enable stats for nerds so that it displays this box?

Answer 17 · 2021-12-16T14:53:06.000Z

@PoomSmart Sure thing. I've attached two screenshots of the Norway video while it's stuttering. The "Stats for Nerds" rapidly switches between "Playing" and "Buffering", but it's definitely not buffering because of network speed since I get a download speed of 300Mbps.

Also just a heads up, I'm planning to return my iPhone 13 Pro Max this weekend and swap out for the 13 Pro (non-Max), so while I wait for the 13 Pro to ship I might be unable to do more testing. I can pick up on it once I get the new phone though.

Answer 18 · 2021-12-17T13:01:42.000Z

@mihir-io YTUHD.dylib in this repo doesn't include entitlement spoofing. That could be the root cause. cc @qnblackcat

Answer 19 · 2021-12-17T14:18:12.000Z

@PoomSmart I use the latest version of YTUHD from your repo. Im not sure what am I missing?

Answer 20 · 2021-12-17T14:19:22.000Z

@qnblackcat You need to include entitlement spoofing when you compile YTUHD. The one in your repo doesn't have it.

Answer 21 · 2021-12-17T14:41:31.000Z

@mihir-io @hassan-waris Please try this version

uYouPlus 16.42.3 (2.1) & YTUHD_F1

Answer 22 · 2021-12-17T14:56:46.000Z

@qnblackcat Unfortunately that one still gives me the same stuttering behavior.

Answer 23 · 2021-12-17T15:04:18.000Z

@PoomSmart I've just compiled YTUHD from your repo. Doesn't seem to be working according to @mihir-io

Answer 24 · 2021-12-17T16:48:54.000Z

@mihir-io @hassan-waris Please try this version

uYouPlus 16.42.3 (2.1) & YTUHD_F1

Hi mate thank you for this solution, I’m currently out of town so I’ll try this once I get back

Answer 25 · 2021-12-17T18:57:18.000Z

This is currently happening on my phone too.

phone: iPhone 13 Pro
uYou: v2.1
Vp9: enabled
Couple examples of videos:

iPhone 11
iOS 15.3 beta
uYou+ IPA above
VP9 enabled
Sideloaded with AltStore

No stuttering.. weird

Answer 27 · 2021-12-18T03:26:34.000Z

@qnblackcat Your IPA has the YTUHD that doesn't have entitlement spoofing. Please try this instead.
YTUHD.dylib.zip

I also updated YTUHD repo so that you can compile with make SIDELOADED=1

Thanks. I will try it asap.

please try this one
uYouPlus 16.42.3 (2.1) & YTUHD_F3

Answer 31 · 2021-12-18T13:08:42.000Z

@hassan-waris @SpecialOperations @qnblackcat

Do you have the stuttering if you disable YTUHD?

No. With it disabled it's fine. Just like @hassan-waris said. Can you please include this fix and dislike ipa into the next uYou+ version? When will the next version come out?

Why did you include YTUHD if YT itself natively supports 4k?

Still not working for iPhone 13 max pro. Stuttering and stats for nerds keep buffering even though my 5g connection is rock solid

The hamster emoji is appearing in the mystery field on stats for nerd too.

Answer 34 · 2021-12-18T14:32:11.000Z

@qnblackcat could you add an option to bring back the new quality selector?

Why do you need it?

You can configure the default video quality in YouTube's Setting.
uYou also allows you to configure the default video quality on Cellular/Wifi

Added an issue to YTUHD

Answer 36 · 2021-12-19T21:52:17.000Z

Why did you include YTUHD if YT itself natively supports 4k?

Sideloaded YouTube ipa on jailed phones doesn't enable 2k,4k. Only 1080p and below.

Answer 37 · 2022-01-21T17:15:35.000Z

@ALL vp9 seems to be working normally now after the latest IOS update. Tested on iPhone 13 max pro. Will continue to monitor. But 2160p 60hz all runs fine without the stutter for me (as of today’s testing).

I use this app, you can also add it as a share sheet option so links automatically open in apps it supports and it oddly works with uYou by default over the standard YouTube app https://apps.apple.com/us/app/opener-open-links-in-apps/id989565871

Answer 42 · 2022-06-15T07:46:34.000Z

Is this issue still relevant? I tried it on my iPhone 13 and i don't seem to have this issue.
